Creating your Analytics Data Marketplace and Reporting Catalog automatically with DvSum Agile Data Catalog

Your Analysts spend a lot of time building the datasets used for reporting and advanced analytics. Most of the time, the same datasets can be reused to create new reports and visuals because the underlying data and metrics is the same. But they don’t. Why? Because these datasets are siloed inside the Analytics stack like Databricks, Tableau, and Power BI, and they aren’t documented. Therefore are not easy to find, access, and explore.

The solution is to have a centralized analytics marketplace of your published datasets, models, and reports. However, the challenge is who will create and manage that Centralized Catalog. Could automation through Data Catalogs be the answer?

When we think of Data Catalog, we don’t think of Reporting or Analytics Catalog. Because traditional Data Catalogs typically focus only on data in data lakes and databases.

DvSum Agile Data Catalog can automatically scan your BI stack, allowing you to create an integrated Data & Analytics Marketplace. It helps the data & analytics team gain visibility into available analytics assets and the associated data sources they were built from. They can easily find, evaluate and confidently choose the best data for their needs. Thereby accelerating time to insights while increasing reuse, metrics consistency, and governance.
